The cell is the building block of life. Increased knowledge of the mechanisms of the biomolecular and biochemical processes in the cell leads to better medicines, new methods for combating diseases.

At University College Venlo (UCV), you have the opportunity to focus on health, nutrition and business in an interdisciplinary manner. You design your own curriculum by choosing from a broad range of courses from the Social sciences (e.g. psychology, sociology, economics, health management, public health or law) and Life sciences (e.g. biology, chemistry and informatics and physiology).

In the Molecular Sciences Master's programme, you will learn about all aspects of the functioning and synthesis of molecules. Choose a specialisation at the intersection of chemistry, molecular life sciences, and biology. Deepen your knowledge in areas such as solid-state chemistry, spectroscopy, organic or physical chemistry, or molecular biology. Combine theoretical courses with extensive research internships in a multidisciplinary and international learning environment and get your MSc degree in Molecular Sciences.

The MSc Agroecology - Resilient Farming and Food Systems is jointly offered by ISARA (France) and Wageningen University (The Netherlands). You have a strong interest in sustainable agriculture and agroecosystem management? Join us!

During the two-year Master's program Ecology and Evolution you will gain insight into the living organism in relation to its environment. Ecology and evolution are strongly interdependent: without ecology, we cannot really understand natural selection; and without evolution, we cannot really understand the properties of organisms and their interaction with the environment. Ecology and evolution are relevant for all domains of the life sciences.

The MSc in Biomolecular Sciences is connected to research institute GBB, which has an excellent international reputation and covers the field of systems-, chemical-, and synthetic biology. You are going to study in internationally oriented research and business area and will have the possibility to join the International Genetically Engineered Machine Competition in Boston. Besides that, our faculty is the home of the 2016 Nobel Prize Winner in Chemistry, Ben Feringa, and the Nobel Prize winner in Physics, Frits Zernike.

The ocean is vital for our economy, our health and well-being, for climate, food and biodiversity. However, due to increasing human-induced impact such as pollution and CO2 emissions the ocean is rapidly changing. As part of the two-year Master’s programme Marine Sciences, you will learn how marine systems and processes operate naturally – and how they change through human intervention.

Do you want to disentangle and understand the complex interaction of development, education, and learning? Are you curious about how processes in educational contexts relate to the cognitive and social development of children, youth, and adults? The Master’s programme in Educational Sciences: Learning in Interaction invites you to tackle these topics and more.

Are you passionate about physical activity, ageing, health and sports? And would you like to know more about how exercise and nutrition influences health, performance and disease? Then Human Movement Sciences could just be the programme for you. It covers all aspects of the relationship between physical activity and health – from patients trying to get better, to individuals just trying to stay fit, to top athletes aiming for the pinnacle of their sport. The programme offers a great deal of variety, with courses covering themes as diverse as nutrition, muscle & brain function, energy production and metabolic profiling. Because of this variety of courses and an individual 4-5 month research-driven internship/placement, you can pursue your own interests within the programme. Upon graduation, you will be well-prepared to work as a researcher, product developer, exercise scientist or trainer at, for example, a rehabilitation institute or a major sporting club.

Turn ideas into innovations with the Applied Science programme. Dive into the world of chemistry and technology to develop smart solutions, conduct groundbreaking research, and bring theory to life. Contribute to building a sustainable future.
